"…On this date in 1933 FDR issued executive order (yeah he had a pen and a phone too) forbidding the hoarding of gold. In actuality there was no 'hoarding' to it. What it was is he forbid US citizens from owning gold bullion and he did it via 'I said'. …"
Vic News Network morning report begins here today.

"…Excuse me? Who the hell serves PIZZA at a wedding reception? It didn't matter. It was all the excuse they needed to vent their wrath on a simple business couple. They got so much hate directed at them,they were forced to close and perhaps never reopen. Ah,but never underestimate pissed-off Christians. …"
Vic kick-starts the day with his latest list of headlines and headaches.
"…On this day in 1972 actor Charlie Chaplin returned to the United States for the first time since being labeled a communist during the Red Scare in the early 1950s. Liberals do like to call that the "Red Scare" to hide the fact that the communists did in fact permeate Hollywood and the Department of State. Charlie Chaplin may not have actually been a member of the Communist Party but he certainly sympathized with them and hung out with them as friends and confidants."
On this day, 1 April 2015, the People's Cube is celebrating ten glorious years of unstoppable revolutions. Jubilant masses of correctly educated workers, peasants, and unwashed toiling intelligentsia are coming together in towns and villages around the world, carrying People's Cube posters, peacefully hurling red cubes at the capitalist classes, and spontaneously chanting Party-approved slogans….

Morning thread starts right off with Vic's Views and News today.
"…The big news last year on this date was that the Michigan Legislature passed a resolution calling for an Art V convention for a balanced budget. There was some question on whether or not it was binding because some of the States who had called for the convention had voted to recall their vote. I guess that question was answered because there has been none called. The idea scares the crap out of Congress."
Pete's opinion leads off his collection of worthy pix & linx for today.
"…The other reason,I think,is that none of the other states has what may be a potential presidential candidate in 2016 and this is their way to bloody him preemptively…"

"On this day in 1978 the Supreme Court handed down what is recognized as the worst ruling ever done in Stump vs Sparkman.
